Bottom Gun said:A wire basket from a deep fryer held over a bucket or tub works great for separating brass from media. Just dump your tumbler into the basket and agitate it over a bucket or tub. It will separate the brass in seconds.
You can pick up a wire basket at flea markets, Goodwill, etc for almost nothing.
I use a Rubbermaid tub which allows me to store the tumbler and basket inside it when not in use.
Thanks for the advice, I have started something like this. I picked up a plastic pasta strainer from target for 99 cents, put it in a garbage bag, and shake just like I'm cooking. After that, I take the media and just use the garbage bag like a funnle and pour the media right back in the tumbler. Seems to work great for me.
